Work With Me!
Cognitive Therapy for Women
I am the Founder and Director of Cognitive Therapy for Women Psychological Services, the first CBT-focused private group practice in New York City dedicated exclusively to women’s mental health. For over 25 years, I have dedicated my practice to women's psychology, career thriving, and personal well-being. My clinical approach is rooted in evidence-based CBT, and my therapeutic style is warm, humorous, and pragmatic. I currently bring this expertise to clients via telehealth in New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
Financial Psychology Intensives
I offer private 3 hour coaching intensives focused on financial psychology - how your beliefs, habits, and emotions form your current relationship to money.
This is not financial planning or investment advice. Instead, we focus on the mindset and behavioral sides of money: understanding patterns, shifting unhelpful beliefs that may limit your sense of options, while strengthening your ability to make aligned, confident decisions with money going forward.
Evaluations for Adoption
Additionally, I conduct the specialized psychological evaluations required for international adoption. Please get in touch for more information.
FAQs
Who are your clients?
I work exclusively with adult women for cognitive-behavioral therapy and coaching services.
Do you work remotely or in-person?
I provide remote services through a HIPAA-compliant video platform, enabling me to work with psychotherapy clients in New York, Connecticut, and Florida, as well as coaching clients throughout the the United States.
What is your fee?
The fee for my psychotherapy services is $450 per 45-minute session period.
The fee for my 3 hour financial psychology intensive is $1650.
Please reach out for the current fee structure for psychological evaluations for international adoption.
Do you take insurance?
For psychotherapy services, I am typically considered an out of network provider by most insurance plans. I provide a complete invoice to each client after a session for the client to submit to her insurer. To determine if you would receive out of network reimbursement for psychotherapy sessions with me, you can contact your insurer and inform them that your psychotherapy services will be rendered by a NY, CT, or PA licensed psychologist (depending on where you reside). Please indicate that the CPT code 90791 with a teletherapy modifier of 95 will be used for the initial consultation; and CPT code 90834 with a teletherapy modifier of 95 will be used for ongoing psychotherapy.
Please note: Financial Psychology Intensives are never reimbursable by insurance, as these services are psychoeducational rather than mental health care.
Also, psychological evaluations for international adoption are generally not reimbursable by health insurance because they are classified as administrative or legal requirements rather than a medically necessary treatment. Insurance companies cover services to diagnose or treat a mental health condition, whereas adoption evaluations are conducted to assess suitability for parenting and to meet regulatory standards
How Long Do Clients Work With You?
In Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I usually work with clients for 12-16 sessions on a specific issue until resolution. After that, we can either work on another concern or we can conclude our work together—it's entirely your choice!
I also offer 3 hour financial psychology coaching intensives designed as standalone experiences.
Psychological evaluations for international adoption and medical clearance typically require a 2-3 hour interview and are required to be in-person.
Can I speak with you before I sign up with you?
For all of my services, please contact me initially here. I’ll arrange a time for us to speak so that we can both get a sense of fit.
Do you offer groups?
My most impactful work happens one-on-one, and I do not offer services in a group format to ensure a highly personalized focus.
